Jianjing (GB21) — anatomical left

Shoulder well — kneading press

Jianjing is the Gallbladder-channel shoulder-well point approached in tuina with broad, moderate kneading rather than a sharp poke. The left shoulder coordinate is an editorial front projection, and force should remain gentle in self-care because the region contains vulnerable structures.
